Well for the record I have unscrewed and re-screwed bazillions of yo-yos (probably 400+?) and not once, _not one time_ have I ever felt that the yo-yo was any different in play than it was when I started?

Have I stripped a yo-yo? [Yes I have!](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/how-tight-is-too-tight/302178/9) The Spin Dynamics Sensei, but apparently that was a known issue (really soft threads) in that particular yo-yo…
